I wish it weren't decided like this. I wish that a coach were judged solely on his team’s performance, not the tallies in the win-loss column. I wish that recruits made decisions based solely off the words of the coach speaking to them, with his name having no impact at all on their decision. I wish that a coach’s job security rested solely on the honest belief of his players in him, not the belief of the alumni, fans and non-football-related administrators who have no idea what happens behind locker room doors or on the practice field.

Slapping a finger against a helmet is the paper cut of the football world. Of all the dangers in this world, it’s embarrassing to slice open your hand on a piece of paper. Likewise, in a sport where bodies are flying around at top speed on every play, it seems improbable for an injury to occur as a result of the helmet, something designed to eliminate injuries. This happened when Ryan Fitzpatrick, quarterback for the New York Jets, had to leave the game this weekend due to a hand injury caused by a helmet.
Facing one of the nation’s worst rushing defenses in Texas A&M, South Carolina was presented with an opportunity for a big day on the ground. Instead, the Gamecocks fell to the Texas A&M Aggies 35-28.
